Have you tried the Shimano ties that clip on to the wires? They act just like zip ties except they simply clip on to the wires.

Didn't know they exist. Thanks for the tip. Do they work on EPS? EPS connectors are a bit larger than Di2 but I suspect the wires to be the same diameter?BdaGhisallo wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 7:06 pmHave you tried the Shimano ties that clip on to the wires?

That's what my LBS uses. I'm going to build this bike myself (apart from stuff I can't do like BB, fork cutting and other bits), and I was thinking that the foam tubing liners I see them using are somewhat... thick! I don't know if there are many kinds of foam liners but those seem to add a bit of extra weight that I want to minimize on this build.MrCurrieinahurry wrote: ↑Mon Oct 18, 2021 7:21 pmFoam tubing liners.
